Edge of Pure Land

Chapter 20 Aoki’s Raid

After Lu Buer returned to the tent, he leaned against the door in a daze and murmured in his heart: "In a political and religious alliance like the Supreme Federation, the church generally does not interfere in secular affairs. However, once the church wants to forcefully interfere, then It must be something otherworldly.”

 For example, that group of heretics.

 For example, his seed of the gods.

He has read a lot of relevant legal documents in the past few days, and has gained some understanding of the legal system of the Supreme Federation. He is also very aware of the troublesome whirlpool he has been involved in.

 The quilt on the bed was lifted up, Lu Sixian raised his head, his delicate face turned porcelain white in the dim light of the night: "Is my brother being investigated by the Anomaly Supervision Bureau?"

 Obviously she hasn't slept the whole time.

Lu Fuji replied absentmindedly: "Yeah, I asked some questions, mostly about the place of death. In fact, I don't even know what that place is for."

Lu Sixian replied seriously: "The place of death is a restricted area of ​​life, an area that is no longer suitable for human beings to set foot on. Five hundred years ago, with the birth of the Kabbalah Tree of Life, something called dark matter appeared on the earth. , it can pollute any form of life and reshape it, which is where the White Walkers come from.”

Lu Fuji was surprised: "You actually know?"

Lu Sixian replied seriously: "I have studied systematically."

Lu Buer became interested and pulled up a chair to sit over: "Continue talking."

"Usually people think that the White Walkers are the deformations of some life forms. In fact, this is not an accurate statement. Because it is not them that mutate, but the dark matter in their bodies. The dark matter has the characteristics of self-evolution, so Only the White Walkers have different levels."

Lu Sixian tilted her head and replied: "A very few white ghosts are also aggressive to the same kind under special circumstances. They can swallow the dark matter in the bodies of the same kind and complete their self-evolution. In the end, they evolve into very terrifying things. Some It can even destroy a city, ugh."

 In the dim candlelight, she raised her hands and clenched them into claws, making a fierce expression.

Of course, this is not intended to be cute, but for a more vivid expression.

 Although it does look silly.

Especially with her expressionless face.

  Lu Fuji thought of the particularly large White Walker he had killed.

 Perhaps it falls into this category.

 “So why are they asking me if I’ve seen the mountain?”

  Lu Fuji eagerly wanted to know the source of the seed of the gods.

Lu Sixian thought for a while: "Maybe they want to ask about the Holy Mountain."

 “Holy Mountain?”

 Lu Fuji was surprised, as expected!

“In the year 398 of the New Era, before the third-generation holy monarch Constantine was crowned, he was an explorer wandering in the restricted area of ​​life. Until one day, he and his expedition team found an ancient treasure map. Following the map Under the guidance of a unicorn, he embarked on a journey to seek miracles, passed through endless fog, passed through various places of death, and finally saw a mountain hidden in a special dimension, inheriting the myth. The legacy of the times.”

"It sounds like a fairy tale, but it is indeed logical. Because the tree of life that humans found in the North Pole was only the most important part of the legacy of the gods. No one knows where the civilization of that era of gods came from, but its There are more than just these ruins. After Constantine walked out of the Holy Mountain, he received powerful power from the gods and created a new era. "

"After Constantine was crowned the Holy Monarch, he canonized his companion as Speaker of Linhai City, thereby establishing the Holy Family, the Russell Family. Since being canonized, the Russell Family has been tasked with guarding the secrets of the Holy Mountain, even if Now their family is in decline.”

"Until the third generation of the Holy Monarch Constantine died of madness in his later years, the secrets of the Holy Mountain were never revealed to the world. But in the past seventy years, unknown changes have occurred repeatedly in the Holy Mountain. The Russell family stationed in Linhai City, Teams have been sent out many times to investigate and eliminate the anomalies.”

 Lu Sixian recited what she knew like a machine, without any emotional fluctuations from beginning to end. Even the primary school students read the text with more emotion than her.

“Wait a minute, what is the divine monarch?”

“You can understand it as the supreme glory that is above secularity and religion, second only to the throne of gods.”

Lu Fuji was startled: "Is this what your superiors asked you to learn?"

 He vaguely thought of the supreme throne that the priests had spoken of.

 It turns out that he is the Holy Monarch!

"Can not remember."

Lu Sixian tilted her head and thought: "Anyway, I can think of these things."

Lu Fuji thought of the warnings on her information and always felt that this little girl might have an unusual origin.

“The mutation in the Holy Mountain is unknown, so how can they clear it?”

 He suddenly thought of another question.

Lu Sixian shook his head: "The mutation of the Holy Mountain is unknown, but the principle of the mutation is certain. Because according to the information left by the third-generation holy monarch Constantine, the Holy Mountain is a place full of dark matter. The Holy Mountain...is probably like this."

Her eyes became focused, she tore off a roll of toilet paper and scribbled on it with a pen.

Lu Fuji found that during the painting process, her eyes became hollow. Her pupils were already white, which made her look a bit weird, even faintly ferocious.

That painting is very abstract. The legendary holy mountain looks like a devil's sharp horn reaching into the sky, but the mountain is flowing with a dark and sticky substance, like graphite and burning embers.

Lu Fuji's scalp went numb after just one look.

 This so-called dark matter is exactly the same as the matter created by the seed of the gods!

No wonder Lu Sixian lowered her head to smell his palm before, claiming that she smelled the scent of a White Walker. It turned out that she was not talking nonsense.

Lu Fuji fell into deep thought. The seed of the gods was most likely the hidden prop his parents said about. It contained the truth about the world and was extremely precious.

 But the crisis of holding a jade made him increasingly nervous.

“Lu Sixian, who are you?”

Lu Fuji asked.

Lu Sixian did not answer his question. Her eyes suddenly became dull and empty, as if she had just painted the painting and exhausted all her energy.

 It’s like my IQ has been cleared.

Lu Fuji took a deep look at her. If she was just an ordinary reserve soldier, it would be impossible for her to have access to the knowledge about the holy mountain, let alone draw what the mountain looks like.

To be on the safe side, it would be best to strangle her to death.

 But Lu Fuji couldn't do such a thing.

This little girl looks quite pitiful, just like herself before.

 If there is a chance, we still have to find out who she is.

 Otherwise, I always feel uneasy.

 “Lu Sixian?”

"elder brother."

 “Are you tired?”

"Um."

"Then go to bed." "Where is my brother?"

 “I’m going to bed too.”

 “Oh, be safe…”

“Be careful? Did you plant a bomb under my bed?”

 “There is no bomb.”

 “Why don’t you go to bed?”

"forgotten…"

Lu Sixian obviously answered perfunctorily, as stupidly as a child with cerebral palsy. She turned over and rolled off the bed, her skirt turned up, revealing her snow-white skin.

Lu Fuji had no choice but to put her on the bed. She was as light as a kitten.

 Hope she can get back to normal after some sleep.

When Lu Fuji was also lying on the bed, he recalled what he had encountered in the Land of the Past, and fell into deep thought: "The heretics encountered in the Land of the Past seem to be related to this wave of White Walkers. My If you hold key clues in your hands, you can not only get rewards by reporting them, but you may also be able to break the current dilemma of being unable to improve your strength..."

 He decided to report secretly tomorrow.

However, at this moment, there was a thud from the tent next door.

Lu Buer was surprised: "Did that guy Jose drive the car?"

Unexpectedly, there was another heavy collision sound, as if punches were hitting the flesh.

The door was knocked open, and there was a painful groan.

Lu Fuji realized something was wrong and hurriedly opened the door and took a look.

Under the torch outside the tent, Jose huddled on the ground in pain, clutching his lower abdomen and inhaling in pain, unable to speak.

"Yo."

　　The man stepped on his shoulder, turned around and said, "We meet again."

 In the darkness, the man raised his head, revealing a familiar and cold face.

 Aoki!

Lu Fuji's first reaction was that he had been exposed for lying, but he immediately discovered that things did not seem to be what he thought, because the other party returned alone.

 Most likely, he wanted to catch him by surprise.

This kind of behavior most likely does not represent the Abnormal Supervision Administration.

"what you up to?"

 He said expressionlessly: "Let go of He Sai."

Aoki stepped on it hard, and the huge force made Jose let out a cry of pain.

 “Okay, give me what you took away.”

Aoki licked his lips and said hoarsely: "Officer An and the boss named Zhang have already confessed that what I want is in your hands. I know you may have forgotten where that thing came from, but You should know that it does not belong to you."

His expression became ferocious, and he said every word: "Take it out."

Huge fear exploded in his mind, and Lu Fuji's thoughts were like a violent storm.

 Aoki’s words completely awakened him.

 So it turns out, he was right to be cautious.

 Aoki has no memory of losing the place of his past life at all.

This guy has a problem!

"If I had told the truth before and exposed that I had not lost my memory, there are two possibilities. The first is that Aoki was suspected and was taken down on the spot. The second is that Ryūque and Aoki are a group. , and I will probably not end well." Lu Buer was secretly shocked.

 It can be seen that there are probably other forces behind Aoki. They seem to not want others to know the existence of the heretics in the Land of the Past, but the specific reasons are unknown.

As for what the other party wanted, Lu Fuji looked at his right hand.

 There is a high probability that it is the seed of the gods.

 It’s a pity that he can no longer hand it over.

A cold murderous intention rushed towards his face, and he repeatedly warned himself to stay calm.

 Aoki said that Officer An and Boss Zhang had already recruited them, and they were most likely scamming him.

 This is a little prisoner’s dilemma trick.

Police Officer An and Boss Zhang didn’t know that the thing was in his hands, so they couldn’t explain it at all.

 Unless there is nothing you can do after being tortured, and you throw the blame to him.

Aoki probably thought that the four of them were a group, so he deliberately used clichés.

 In other words, there is a high probability that Aoki doesn’t know whose hands the thing is.

　　　Not even knowing that he has recovered his memory.

"I do not know what you're talking about."

 Lu Fuji said calmly: "I didn't take anything from you."

Aoki sighed softly, then suddenly twisted his waist and struck him with a sharp leg sweep!

boom!

　　This kick smashed the wooden stake next to it, and Lu Fuji dodged sideways at the critical moment.

 The howling wind lifted his forehead hair, exposing his narrow pupils.

"Um?"

Aoki was obviously a little surprised, and his continuous leg sweeps were like a strong wind!

 Bang, bang, bang!

Faced with this kind of attack, Lu Fuji calmly blocked it with his crossed hands. The instinct of fighting had been ingrained in his mind. He skillfully raised his elbows and raised his arms like a seasoned fighter, and blocked the attack without any hesitation. The opponent's last kick.

With a bang, his center of gravity sank, and he bent his knees to remove the force falling from the sky.

 Aoki's eyes changed: "Interesting."
